Mistaken identity

As the two turned a corner and disappeared under several century-old trees, Xu Qianyu paused in confusion on the adjacent path, gazing in that direction for a long while.

"Qianyu, why aren't you moving?"

"I thought I saw someone familiar... never mind."

This was Imperial University, after all, how could she possibly be here?

The path behind clearly led to the faculty residential area.

Xu Qianyu turned away and headed for the academic building with her roommate.

"I mistook someone for another."

"So that was it. Speaking of which, I heard your Xu Family is planning to take on the production line for that new mechanical engineering project?"

"Yeah, you heard about that too?"

"Of course, it's big news, but... you'll need Professor Chen's permission to qualify, which might be tricky."

"I know," Xu Qianyu frowned, gripping her small purse tightly.

"Has Professor Chen Han still not been coming to teach at school recently?"
